Relaxing Country Retreat close to all amenities. Great for the whole family!

Relax back in our large, cosy guesthouse that’s big enough for the whole family, and supplied with all the amenities, including heat/air conditioning, washer/dryer, large tv, and wifi; to name a few. Large decks overlook duck ponds and pastures of grazing cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens and turkeys. The view from the deck over neighbouring farms is second to none. The area is well know for its diverse bird population- from Owls and eagles, to herons and sparrows. A bird-lovers paradise.
Our home is the perfect escape from the city, yet 5 min from the airport, ferries, and Town of Sidney - a charming seaside town with everything from breweries, fine restaurants, museums, and cinemas, to great shopping!
We are a 10 min walk to the Pat Bay beach, which is warm and swimmable in the summer, and has the most amazing sunsets anytime of year.
We are surrounded by amazing hiking trails and parks.
Perhaps one of the most breath taking aspects of our area is the The Gulf Islands National Park. You can access some of these Islands by ferry, or we can arrange a private boat charter upon request.
